One of my favorite pieces which I enjoyed very much this season is the Manzanita Candelabra from west elm. I had purchased it about a year ago; it's branches have been stunning on my dining table and subsequently on the coffee table.
I had used it on its own without candles for the entire year. I had not purchased the mini taper candles at the time and later I could not find the right-sized candles anywhere. I displayed it as a sculptural centerpiece, adding a form of nature to my coffee table vignette. Clearly, this is a very organic piece.
(Picture from earlier this year).
This past December, west elm brought the mini tapers back in for the holidays and I was finally able to display the piece with all its nine candles. The candles take the candelabra to a different level altogether. They add further dimension and more height.
The Manzanita Candelabra continues to be a conversation starter and is something that can be used all year long. Perhaps some day I will consider lighting the candles but for now I am enjoying everything as is.
Happy New Year to All! I wish You and Yours a Happy, Healthy 2013 and I thank you for your continued support!

ReplyDeleteThat candelabra is really pretty. I'm always looking for pieces like that after the holidays to see if I can get for a steal. And thanks for including the link to those mini tapers. I had picked up a small candleabra a few months ago and it needs mini tapers but I still haven't bought them, so this is great. Happy New Year Lisa!
ReplyDeleteI have not been to a West Elm in ages but now I need to go check out what kind of goodies they now have in their stores. Your candelabra is great with the candles.
ReplyDeleteI've always loved that candelabra. Love that you use it year round. It looks so cute with the flowers. I wouldn't have thought of that!
ReplyDeleteI love your coffee table! Where is that from??
